A DMINISTRATION AND CERTIFICATION OF MODULES

Participant performance assessment

Participants will be assessed by means of direct observation and supplementary oral questions where appropriate (formative evaluation). Furthermore, the participants will be subjected to written phase tests after theory elements, and again after the close of the training course (summative evaluation). The written tests can consist of multiple choice or descriptive answer questions, and shall be set at the same taxonomy level as the objective that they are testing. There shall be at least one question for each lesson in the module.

The written tests shall be conducted in accordance with the following criteria:

(1) There shall be an instructor present in the room where written tests are being conducted for the entire duration of the written test

(2) The participants shall not communicate with each other during the test

(3) The participants shall not communicate with any persons via email, telephone, Skype (or similar) or social media during the test (4) The participants shall be allowed to use training material, handouts and their own notes during the test (5) Where a participant does not understand the meaning of a question or a multiple-choice option, the training staff shall be allowed to help the participant to understand the meaning of the question or the multiple-choice options. The training staff shall not give the participants the correct answers to any test questions

(6) There shall be a time limit of 1½ minutes per question

(7) The written test questions cannot be used during the training in such a way that the participants could recognise that they will be test questions.

(8) Each participant must answer at least 70% of written test questions correctly to pass the test.

If a participant does not reach the passing criteria in written or observational tests, the instructor shall discuss this with the participant to find out the reason for not reaching the passing criteria. If the reason is due to a misunderstanding of a question or due to language difficulties, then the instructor can mark a question as correct provided that the participants is able to demonstrate understanding of the lesson element being tested. This must be documented by the instructor and stored with the tests, control measures and evaluations for the course. Training providers shall have a documented procedure in place for dealing with participants not meeting the stated learning objectives. Throughout the entire GWO blade repair course, the instructor will use the participant assessment form (see Requirements for Training Providers) to evaluate the participants knowledge and skills, with a high focus on evaluating the participants ’ safety awareness and craftsmanship skills. The instructor shall keep a participant assessment form (or adaptation) for each participants until the completion / evaluation of the blade repair training module.
